War re-deployment
Hi, I'm using tomcat 5.5.26 and after having a look at the host
application deployment (
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/config/host.html#Automatic%20Application%20Deployment
) I still have a doubt:
If tomcat is down and I change a war file in webapps, after restarting
tomcat, is there anyway for tomcat to detect the change in the war and
re-deploy it?

I'm actually using anthill (http://www.anthillpro.com) to do the
deployment, which works basically copying the files to the server
using an agent.

I think the best way is to use manager app to deploy the war file in tomcat. See http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/manager-howto.html for more details.

And what's the best/most reliable way to deploy applications on tomcat?
Would be to expand directly inside the webapps? Wouldn't have any
issue of while copying the files tomcat would try to start the
incomplete app? What are your views on deploying applications on
production in tomcat? Or maybe would be to stop tomcat remove the old
app, add the war and re-start tomcat?

Does anyone know how tomcat should work regarding to this?

Regarding the above, from what I experienced and from what I read from
the docs is that if you deploy a war in a dead tomcat, it won't
re-deploy unless you remove the expanded folder from a previous
deploy.

Tomcat standard out of the box... ie no one has played with the settings...
is smart, you dont have to help it...
Use manager/html to deploy remotely...
But the way every one understands is... drop the war into webapps... thats
it.
Its smart... if the war has changed TC will fix things...
If you drop a war into a dead tomact and then start it... its still smart ;)
Only thing is... when you done developing in you IDE... ask you IDE to
undeploy it... otherwise TC may still be thinking you want the project in
the IDE to run.
easy...
